To add to the mystery every year schools of 3 to 5 inch bait fish of some sort show in the river ranging from very large, darn near bank to bank, schools to more modest size. Birds go crazy and everything that eats fish goes at it. This year just nothing! Just beautiful scenery with Seagulls scrapping around. I have to agree this is beyond strange.

I am beginning to wonder if we have a dissolved oxygen issue? Low DO and fish just don't care for it as they like to breath just in water.

Maybe the showery days next week ( supposed to add up to less than a half inch ) will bring with it a barometer drop that drags some in. After that I am designating myself clueless!
